Dior has a new edition of its Millennial-focused Poison Girl fragrance – a Eau de Toilette to follow up last year’s Eau de Parfum launch. And to celebrate the venerable French brand wants us to\u00a0join the Poison Club and dance…<\/p>\n

Dior Poison Girl Eau de Parfum, which launched last year, and now the Eau de Toilette, are the first iterations of Poison since the original scent bowed in 1985. The former, though, isn\u2019t sold in the U.S. and is only available in the Middle East, Europe and South America. Both versions of Poison Girl are creations of Fran\u00e7ois Demachy, Perfumer-Creator, Parfums Christian Dior.<\/p>\n

To correct this geographical hitch Dior is zeroing in on its Millennial contingency in the U.S. – and so Dior Poison Girl Eau de Toilette will be on sale at Macy’s, Sephora\u00a0and Dior.com<\/a>\u00a0tomorrow (Feb 1 2017).\u00a0In the U.S., the Eau de Toilette will enter 1,120 doors during the first quarter and an additional 1,700 doors the second half of the year, and to complement the rollout, the brand will transform select points of sale into \u201cPoison Clubs.\u201d The scent will hit counters globally immediately following the U.S. launch.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Eau de Toilette skews younger than anything the brand has done to date, driven by a predominantly digital marketing strategy and e-commerce heavy distribution, according to Renaud de Lesquen, president and chief executive officer for North America, Christian Dior Couture and Parfums Christian Dior, via WWD.<\/p>\n

De Lesquen noted that although they are part of the same pillar, the Eau de Toilette and Eau de Parfum are completely different. With notes of Sicilian Sweet Orange, Calabrian Bitter Orange, Neroli, Grasse Rose, Vanill and Tonka Bean, the eau de toilette is a \u201cjuicy, sugary gourmand\u201d while the parfum is less sweet, \u201cmore oriental and the concentration is different.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThey are sisters, but it doesn\u2019t develop the same way on the skin.\u2026Poison Girl [Eau de Toilette] is edgier, it\u2019s more provocative.\u2026She\u2019s fresh, connected and social. That\u2019s why we decided to launch in a different way; to really target, recruit and talk to the Millennial,\u201d de Lesquen said.<\/p>\n

To do this, Dior\u2019s marketing efforts are focused primarily in the online space, with 60 percent of ad spend allocated to digital.\u00a0De Lesquen said the goal is to build a fourth pillar under the Parfums Christian Dior portfolio, which is driven by the J\u2019adore, Miss Dior and Sauvage ranges.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Millennial is digital. We pushed the envelope quite drastically,\u201d de Lesquen said of digital comprising the majority of a Dior fragrance\u2019s media spend for the first time. \u201cSauvage stepped into a digital-oriented strategy \u2014 [but digital was] for sure less than half [of media spend].\u201d<\/p>\n
